A cross between petit Bouschet and aramon obtained by Henri Bouschet in 1855. It should be noted that this grape variety is very similar to the piquepoul-bouschet (a cross between the piquepoul gris and the petit Bouschet) with which it should not be confused. Grand Noir de la Calmette is in the process of disappearing, and is still found only in the form of isolated strains in old vines in the south and southwest of France. - Synonymy: gros noir, sousao do Oeste, sumo tinto (all the synonyms of the grape varieties, click here!)
